I was wondering if I could get some help with the following problem.

My system is a - 486-33 with 16 megs memory
               - OS/2 2.0 with the Service Pack and
                 using SIO & VSIO v026, X00 v149a as fossil
                 for each node.
               - Two nodes running RA v.1.11 using two
                 internal 2400 baud modems on COM1 & COM2
                 standard IRQ's and addresses.
               - another node (not up) using an external 2400
                 baud modem (will switch to my 14,400 when the
                 node works <grimace>).  This third node is
                 COM3, IRQ5.

In the Config.sys is(SIO v1.31 and 1.34 triedwith same result):
DEVICE=C:\OS2\SIO.SYS (1,3F8,4) (2,2F8,3) (3,2E8,5)
DEVICE=C:\OS2\VSIO.SYS

CALL=C:\OS2\MODE.COM COM1:2400,N,8,1,,TO=OFF,XON=OFF,IDSR=ON,ODSR=ON,
<cont'd this line>  OCTS=ON,DTR=ON,RTS=ON
<the same thing for COM2 and COM3>

In each nodes batch files (X00 v1.49)
 NODE 1: X00 E 1 B,0,2400
 NODE 2: X00 E 1 B,1,2400
 NODE 3: X00 2=2E8,5 B,2,2400 F=15 T=4096 R=4096
 
I've also tried activating X00 via Dos Device in the boxes Dos settings.
On the node that won't work the initialization string is:
AT L0 H0 S0=0 X4 V1 M3|
My problem:

Once I have the third node's port set up and run RA it won't
initialize the modem.  The modem panel lights up the send and
receive data indicators as it gets the initialization
instructions from RA but it just doesn't work.  I can't figure
this one (probably something simple I am missing.  Any help in
resolving these problems would be appreciated (note, I am not
interested in switching BBS software right now)
I seem to be able to set Auto Answer on or off via the
initialization which makes me think that RA isn't getting the 
"modem ready" command or it isn't being sent to RA.

I don't have a direct answer to your problem but you may want
to post this to the comp.os.os2.misc newsgroup. You will probably
have a better chance with an answer to your problem,
Good luck.
